■ What is it?
Decoseam™ is Aisa’s unique side-seam welding technology. For the first time, this technology allows the properties of the outer web layer to be changed independently from the inner web layer. In fact, because the outer layer is no longer welded onto the inner layer (overlap), we can now optimise for sustainability, security, touch, decoration or any other value-added functionality that customers desire.
1. Decoseam™ strip is fed into the centre of the butt-weld seam, while the flat decorated laminate is formed into an endless tube!
A. Decorated laminate
B. Internal strip
C. External strip
Tube cut side-seam area
2. To prevent the paperboard from absorbing external moisture, a second strip is welded on the outside of the sleeve.
D. External strip
E. Internal strip
F. Barrier layer
G. Plastic or paperboard laminate
H. Decoration layer
■ Available on
SAESA®100, SAESA®200, BM 120 and BM 240 lines running at outputs of 100, 200, 120 and 240 tubes or sleeves/min.
■ New market opportunities
- Allows the use of new functional web structures.
- Tube performance guaranteed.
- Use of DIBS welding system to edge-weld the tube side-seam with a reinforcement strip.
- 360° decoration gives greater print surface and eliminates design gap.
- Improved haptics due to freedom of the top layer.
- Tube diameter range from 19 mm to 63.5 mm.
